Today has been interesting, but so have all of the days since I've last posted. I'll get to those days later, but for now, I only want to talk about today.
Today's song of the day is "Cosmic Love" by Florence And The Machine. It is a very beautiful, poetic, indie song. If there was a movie about my life, I would want that song to be in it. I don't exactly know why.
Today, I ate breakfast with the "new person" I mentioned in my last post, made a new friend on the site I use to download music who reads this blog, and learned how to play the Party Rock Anthem on my clarinet at band practice. It has been an interesting day.
So, the most important meal of the day. Breakfast. How did I go from a slight interest to eating breakfast with this person? Well it all happened two Wednesdays ago. I was playing my guitar, as I do every Wednesday morning in Guitar Club when he wandered over to me, sat down on the desk next to mine, and asked what I was playing. We talked about different things, I listened to him strum the strings of my guitar. He is an exceptional guitar player.
From that day on, smiles and waves, small talk, turned into friendship. And my only hope is to turn it into something more.
Let's call him Jordan.
Jordan has long brown hair and dark brown eyes. He is tall and thin. He wears a lip ring. He has a sweet smile and a great sense of humor. He seems quiet at first, but once he starts talking to you, he's one of the most outgoing people you'll ever meet. He listens to metal music, and also classical and jazz. He's a little OCD, kind of a germaphobe. He's lactosse intolerent. He owns eight guitars, most of them being electric. He is a junior in high school. His dad spends tons of money on music equipment for him, but he doesn't even buy him new pants. He wants to start a band with his brother. He likes cinnamon rolls. He is very unique.
I'm falling for him.
But unlike with Light, it doesn't hurt at all. This is listening to happy music and writing sweet songs. This is doodling hearts all over my Child Care class folder. This is hope, something small just waiting to unfold into something amazing. I am excited about this, and I can't wait to tell you more. :)
In other news, I was so happy to find someone who reads this blog today! I love making friends on the internet, because it just shows how advanced our world is today. I've talked to people from all over America, and even England, Mexico, and the Netherlands. It's so strange how you can come across someone on the internet, and someday, they can turn into one of the most important parts of your life. My lastest "cyber-friend" is so easy to talk to, and he just completely understands me. Sometimes it's just easier to talk to someone you've never met in person than to someone you've known for years. It's amazing how that works sometimes. Also, he told me that messaging Yuuki and I within the same day, not knowing we had any connection to each other must have been something dealing with fate, because it is too strange to be a random coincidence. I believe it, too. Strange things like that happen every day, like the story of Tom.
Tom lives in England, and one day, I sent him a random message on that site I use to download music. We talked for a few days, and then I added him on Facebook. Yuuki, interested in having a friend from England, added him also. Tom and I don't talk too much anymore, but he and Yuuki message each other at least once a week. Tom is seventeen, he is in a band in England, and he always has great advice. Though he's about three thousand miles away from her, Tom is always there for Yuuki when something goes wrong, or she just needs someone to rant to. Yuuki couldn't help but fall for him after months of talking, and he told her that if he was single and lived in America, he would love to date her. But that's the problem. I mean, other than the fact that he has a girlfriend. The problem is: The Atlantic Ocean. He says he will come to visit Yuuki in winter, but will he actually do it? The Atlantic Ocean has never seemed wider... Would he cross it for her? I can't wait to find out.
I know that I'm changing the subject so often it seems like I have ADD, but it's amazing how as we get older, we realize who our true friends really are. Years back, I had so many close friends. Now, I have to say that I only have four very close friends, not including my twin sister. I know I've mentioned Symphony and Alexandria. Symphony is the friend who always knows what to say, who I can talk to about anything, who is like my wise older sister who is sometimes disappointed in me and sometimes proud of me, who I am so close to but have nothing in common with. Alexandria is the friend that I have so much in common with, who I've known for almost ten years, who is like family to me, who I can just pour my heart out to, and she would never judge me. There are also two very close friends of mine that I don't believe I've mentioned. Let's call them January and Violet. January is a year older than me, but sometimes she feels like my little sister. She constantly comes to me for advice, even though I think I'm not that great at giving advice. I'm more of a listener than a talker, you know? January isn't very bright, and she gets bullied a lot for it, which upsets me every time it happens. And then there's Violet. Violet is a year younger than me, and she and I got a lot closer this year than we were last year, when I had met her. She's kind of like my little sister, and we have a lot in common. We spend a lot of time together, and we talk about everything. She's insecure, but she doesn't have a reason to be. She says the most random, weird, things, and sometimes her words get her in a little bit of trouble. Not serious trouble, just being reprimanded by people. Mostly me. Lately, I consider Violet one of my closest friends, because it is so easy to relate to her, and she is one of my only friends that hasn't been annoying the hell out of me.
Three days of writing this one, I guess I'll go now. I'll be back soon.
